^Yeah man, once you have that big habit goin, getting good shit becomes a necessity to survive! Nothing sucks worse than dope that won't even keep you well!
Everybody blames the dealers for stepping on it, but I know from seeing it up close that a lot of time these guys are getting weak product from further up the chain....Sometimes, the fingers themselves are garbage....
The mid level dealers do the same thing we do....They have 4-5 people that they can call for weight and they try to get the best shit possible for their customers....if theyre good dealers anyway! you have to stay on top of it to make money...
If I get somebody news number and call them and their shit sucks or is skimpy, I usually give them 2 chances and if it doesnt improve, I don't bother calling them ever again...
A lot of times, I'd find out about a dealer that had good shit that I didn't know and had to find an in to get their number.....Any good dealer thats consistent will have a ton of customers in no time, so a lot of the time they don't wanna even bother with taking on new customers, but when you have the best shit in town, skys the limit to how much money you can make, so a lot of these guys bite off way more than they can chew and end up getting busted....It usually all starts when they give you multiple numbers to call and take on partners....When it starts getting really crazy where everybody in town is going nuts for one guys dope, its usually just a matter of time before they get grabbed....and if thats who youve been going to, that blows.....
^Yeah man, I wasted my fair share of time chasing dope up that way!
